The award is structured as a five-year agreement extending through September 30, 2030, with a total proposed budget of $310 million. CIMAS, located at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric...
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $1.083 million cooperative agreement to the Oregon Department of State Lands from July 1, 2021 through December 31, 2022 under the Coastal Zone Management Estuarine Research Reserves program (CFDA 11.420). The funding will support the development, acquisition, monitoring, research, education, operation and facilities construction activities at Oregon's National Estuarine Research Reserves to establish natural field laboratories...
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded Oregon State University $282,869 under Cooperative Agreement NA26OARX417C0149 on August 1, 2026, through the Sea Grant Support program (CFDA 11.417). The award funds development of individual-based models (IBMs) that simulate how oceanographic changes affect migratory salmonids. The project uses regional ocean circulation model output and NOAA-tagged salmon smolt data to model Chinook salmon smolt trajectories and survival...
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a Cooperative Agreement totaling $3.89 million to the Oregon Department of Land Conservation & Development on September 1, 2026, under the Coastal Zone Management Administration Awards program (CFDA 11.419) to administer and expand Oregon's federally approved coastal management program. The award funds coastal zone management activities including coastal and ocean data coordination and management, land use and sensitive habitat...
- Cooperative Agreement Summary The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded the University of Hawaii at Manoa $373,529 under the Cooperative Institute (Inter-Agency Funded Activities) program (CFDA 11.405) for the period of September 1, 2025 through March 31, 2027. The Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research (CIMAR) will execute this project to expand sea level monitoring stations across the Pacific region, with deliverables including installation of new...
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a cooperative agreement totaling $2.7 million to the University of Miami on October 1, 2025, under the Cooperative Institute (Inter-Agency Funded Activities) program (CFDA 11.405). The Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS), based at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School, will collect and analyze data on lower trophic level organisms in Barataria Basin, Louisiana as part of Deepwater Horizon restoration...
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded Oregon State University $201,507 under Cooperative Agreement NA26OARX432C0081, effective October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, under the NOAA Cooperative Institutes program (CFDA 11.432). Oregon State University, operating through the Cooperative Institute for Marine Ecosystem and Resources Studies (CIMERS) headquartered at the Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, Oregon, will develop and test uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) technologies and procedures for high-accuracy 3D geospatial mapping without ground control, using direct georeferencing techniques. The work addresses limitations in current-generation UAS data collection for measuring riverbed elevations and river flow velocities, reducing the need for extensive and logistically challenging fieldwork. The project will increase the operational readiness of UAS direct georeferencing capabilities within NOAA's Southwest Fisheries Science Center, supporting decision-support tools used for water allocation and salmon recovery strategies. Work is performed in Corvallis, Oregon. The NOAA Cooperative Institutes program facilitates cooperation between government, university, and nonprofit research institutions to increase research effectiveness and develop innovative approaches to environmental science education aligned with NOAA's mission goals.
